Abstract

The invention provides a silicon-based optical antenna and a preparation method. The silicon-based optical antenna comprises an SOI substrate, the SOI substrate at least comprises a substrate siliconlayer, a buried oxidation layer and a top silicon layer, the buried oxidation layer is positioned between the substrate silicon layer and the top silicon layer, the top silicon layer of the SOI substrate is etched to form a row of waveguides arranged horizontally, the spacing of the waveguides is in Gaussian distribution, and each waveguide is engraved with a grating. A waveguide array in the optical antenna is arranged in Gaussian distribution, so that light waves can realize a low far-field divergence angle, a good grating lobe inhibition effect, and high horizontal and vertical radar scanning resolution when passing a 2D diffraction grating.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of antennas, in particular to a silicon-based optical antenna and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The concept of phased array lidar has been proposed long ago, and various design schemes are constantly being developed, and its basic modules are also mature, such as light source, beam splitting, modulation, etc., but how to phase-modulate the light of each waveguide Efficiently exporting photonic integrated circuits remains a great challenge. This is because the refractive index of the waveguide is much larger than that of air, and it is very difficult to couple light from the waveguide into free space, so that the emission efficiency of the optical antenna is extremely low, which seriously affects its utilization. In addition, the grating lobes formed by the interference of light coupled from each waveguide into free space will seriously affect the performan...
